Beginning Teacher Assistance

"I Can Do It" Classroom Management Program

All teachers with a Missouri Initial Professional Certificate (IPC) must participate in a beginning teacher assistance program (BTAP) before upgrading their certificate. “I Can Do It” is designed for teachers in their first two years and any teacher who wants to improve their classroom management skills. Teachers with several years of experience also find these sessions helpful. Missouri NEA partners with Maryville University to offer a meaningful program that meets the certification requirements for the beginning teacher assistance program.

MNEA's “I Can Do It” Program is currently undergoing revisions and will return in Fall 2024.
